UFC Hall of Famer and two-division champion, BJ Penn, will make his anticipated return back to the octagon on January 15 at UFC Fight Night 103 against Yair Rodriguez. As the former UFC welterweight and lightweight champion, Penn will be eyeing to win his third title, now in the featherweight division.
On December 8, he spoke to Helen Yee of Eyes On The Game. He discussed which fighter motivated his return, his plan to win the featherweight title, Conor McGregor recently relinquishing his featherweight belt, and more.
